The idea that empathy and caution can be enculturated in people lacking both with photography is flawed at its base assumption.

I have a double handful of folks I could cite as examples who have lost family members to Covid and still give money to anti-mask, anti-vaxx movements.

You can't make them care.

That is simply untrue.
